Destination Arrow Error

Hello!

 

So I've encountered an interesting issue with inserting destination arrows.

 

No matter if i insert the destination arrow immediately after inserting the source arrow by clicking yes when it asks, "Insert matching destination arrow now?", or start the destination arrow command from the ribbon, the result is the same.

 

Extracting networks: 1
Error: bad argument type: numberp: nil

 

I've gone through a bit to see if it is something with my drawing or project, and I don't see anything out of the ordinary.

The line is on an applicable wires layer.

The project is set up properly, and the drawing is part of the active project.

The destination wire has no wire number, fixed or otherwise.

 

I'm assuming there must be something with the command, as it is looking for a number value, and not finding one...

 

Any suggestions?

 

--Thanks in advanced!

Hi Tomtom,

 

Can you post a sample project and drawing with the issue?

Are there any other commands acting strange?

 

Regards,

Thanks for the reply.

I haven't noticed any other commands acting starnge yet.

This is the first one, and kind of a pain, as i use the command very frequently.

 

Here is a copy of the sample.

 

I'm trying to put a source from line 40119 to the next ladder on 40120.

I just figured it out...

 

I made a custom LISP to insert ladders.

I had a problem with editing the top reference numbers, which are attributed blocks.

 

I got the first ladder to work properly, but the second one was the one i was having difficulty with.

I actually made a copy of the WD_MLRH block, and created a WD_MLRH1 block for the second ladder.

 

I've never really had a problem with it until now!

 

Once i deleted the second ladder numbers, and inserted them the old fashioned way, the destination arrow was going in just fine.

 

Well I guess it's back to the drawing board with that LISP routine!

Hi Thomas,

 

No problem, I noticed that all new wires that were created were NOT working. (Edited)

I checked your drawing limits, and ran every fix i could think of. (even Copied it into another drawing)

 

Glad thats Solved...LOL

 

Let me know if you need any help.
